Punaro Glen Construction: Lighting and Technology
ByDerek
Lighting fixtures are something we’ve been buying since before we actually moved out of our last house. Amanda would stalk LampsPlusOpenBox.com for great deals on lights we liked. I can’t even calculate how many thousands of dollars we probably saved on lights by taking our time and buying things that came up on that site…
Vacation Geocaching
ByDerek
We rarely go anywhere new without doing a little geocaching along the way. One thing that made this trip fun was the series of caches at rest areas along I-90 East. Out of four rest stops before we exited, we found three geocaches. The fourth appears to be missing altogether. We hit a nice two-part…
Time Warner Cable. Confused.
ByDerek
You know all those Time Warner Cable commercials that proclaim a laundry list of reasons why they’re better than satellite? Oh how they loved to boast about “no long term contracts.” It even says so in their FAQ on Cable vs. Satellite: Q: Cable vs. Satellite A: Here are some of the advantages of choosing…
Still on the Duomo

Ok… since I got distracted from posting Europe photos, here’s a bunch to catch up. And now a few photos of Amanda and I, and Mark & Anne… Thanks to Mark for taking this one, otherwise there might not be many of Amanda and I together!
What to do with an old satellite dish
ByDerek
Our house came with it’s very own, not recently used, 8.5′ Birdview satellite dish. You know, one of these big suckers: I really had no use for it and since it was blocking my tractor’s path into the garden, began looking for options to dispose of it. I found a group of people that amazingly…
From all those photographs, the one that struck me (and probably not many others) the most is the one with the bicycles all lined up. The juxtaposition of very modern with the very communist-egalitarian is a hoot. I have a similar photograph from my trip to Shanghai – hundreds upon hundreds of bicycles, all virtually identical, Schwinn-looking, rust-covered, circa 1950s. I never did find out if they were community property or individually owned, but I couldn’t imagine knowing how to tell mine from the others, had I owned one.
I guess you had to be there.

Hooters in China….. I like them more and more all the time.
Have seen many of your photos, but I don’t really remember alot of them not to say that they aren’t good but there are a few here that have really caught my eye — the black and white tree lined pathway is amazing. I also really enjoyed the sunset skyline shot and night lites shot. Very good shots Derek from what looks like an amazing place to visit.
